Channel Options
The Mini Channel trench drain system includes a choice of sand or grey colored channel. These 3″ wide non-sloped channels are UV protected and manufactured from durable lightweight polyolefin.
Grate Options
The system boasts removable grates, in a wide variety of grating options, making it a very attractive system for patio, poolside and landscape drainage. The narrow openings on the grating give the Mini Channel drainage system an ADA compliance rating.
Slotted Polyolefin Grates
The NDS slotted plastic slotted grates are available in six colors (white, gray, black, sand, brick red, green) and secure in place with stainless steel screws. These grates are ADA compliant and manufactured with UV inhibitors to prevent fading and cracking from the sun. NDS also offers a slotted brass grate, available in satin or polished brass finish, which is also ADA-compliant.
Decorative Polyolefin Grates
NDS decorative plastic Wave and Botanical grates eliminate the channel’s plastic edge lines, enhancing patio and pool aesthetics. These decorative grates are UV protected to give the plastic system longevity in southern climates. These grates are a full 3 inches wide and extend over the top of the channel edge.
Cast Iron Decorative Grates
The NDS decorative Wave and Botanical designs are also popular cast iron grate options made to fit the NDS Mini Channel kits in our online store. Advances in the decorative grating market have led to a number of decorative grates for trench drains.
